Nielo

Edit: A little bit late, Happy Birthday Nielo and Elise_xx

Thank you!

they were awesome! I tweeted at the spot that im instant fangurl.

Must say I like greenday since 1994 if im correct..dont know why i never went to a gig...

I'd never seen them live either! I've only been a fan since American Idiot, but then again, I was only 15 or 16 when that came out.

I'm definitely gonna see them live again! And now I wanna be front row, cause I was kinda jealous of all the people he pulled up on stage.

*Must look for a Green Day thread to fangirl in*

We watched Pink from the back, she was amazing, I never actually knew too much about her, just that I quite like her songs and that she's a bad-ass bitch but wooo what a show! Her band is awesome and she has a great voice, I really enjoyed it.

Pink was awesome! I'd wanted to see her live for quite some time, and she definitely didn't disappoint, even though we were all the way in the back!

Oh, and the fact that she sang Tom Petty's Free Fallin' makes me love her even more.

3voor12 review:

 

“Ik denk dat hij homo is,” fluistert een meisje in het oor van haar vriend. Aan het einde van zijn optreden trekt de zanger zijn shirt uit. Weer een andere jongen bedekt vlug de ogen van zijn vrouw. Welkom in de onschuldige wereld van Mika waarin alles in goud verandert.

 

CONCERT

Mika, Pinkpop 3FM stage, zondag 30 mei 2010

 

MUZIEK

Dries Roelvink liet vandaag weten zich graag kandidaat te willen stellen voor de volgende editie van het Songfestival. Niet om te winnen - hij kent zijn plek - maar voor de entertainment, een lach op het gezicht van de Nederlanders. Zal Mika al eens benaderd zijn om als afgevaardigde van Engeland er aan mee te doen? Hij zou met gemak winnen. Niet alleen zou hij je een glimlach bezorgen, maar ook overtuigen in performance en in zang, en als hij wil: je kippenvel geven. Mika is de Freddy Mercury met de stofzuigerslang tegen het strottenhoofd, de kitsch van Elton John zijn collectie brillen gedragen door de leden van boyband Blue. Mika is de pophitschrijver voor wie geen noot te hoog is en geen snoepje te zoet.

 

PLUS

Hoe zijn show eerder deze maand in de Amsterdamse HMH eruit zag weet ik niet. Wel heb ik Mika twee jaar geleden in het hoofdstedelijke Westerpark mogen zien. Dat was geen optreden, maar een geslaagd circus met meisjes verkleed als lollies tijdens Lollipop, de opkomst van een kudde welgevormde vrouwen en levende bekers cola tijdens Big Girl, terwijl de zanger op dat moment zelf verdronk in een enorme opblaaspop. Op Pinkpop blijft het bij een opblaasbeen, de rest van zijn poppenkast laat hij thuis. Des te verfrissender is het om dan te zien dat Mika het zeker ook zonder kan. Optreden is voor Mika kinderspel. Met een enorme souplesse loopt hij zijn set door, zonder als publiek de indruk te krijgen dat hij een trucje uithaalt. Want performen zit hem in het bloed, dat is vandaag wel zo duidelijk. Daarin weet hij zowel jong en oud te betrekken. Niet eerder stonden er zoveel kinderen voor het podium, vaak op de schouders van hun papa. Onschuldiger dan tijdens Mika wordt het niet op Pinkpop. Wat hij doet, smaakt zoet, maar toch voelt het als Mika in Wonderland en alles wat hij doet verandert evenzogoed in goud. Tijdens de afsluiter zingt iedereen mee: “We are golden.”

 

MIN

Eén keer zet hij net een stap te ver. Tijdens Love Today ontbloot Mika zijn bovenlijf, als een man die een vrouw de slaapkamer in probeert te verleiden. Te voorschijn komt een dun plankje buik. De onschuld is dan verloren, maar een echte man zal Mika nooit zijn. En nee, Mika heeft niet alles onder controle. Precies op het moment dat zijn nummer Rain in wil zetten, klaart de lucht.

CONCLUSIE

Kort na zijn show twittert Mika dit:

So, this morning Istanbul. Lunchtime I was in Germany. Evening I was performing in Holland. Now in Belgium trying to get a flight to the UK

Zijn hectische afgelopen dagen, maar op het podium merk je daar niets van. Het bewijst maar weer: Mika is een rasentertainer met een hart van goud.

Sorry no time to translate:biggrin2:

Yeah, taking off your shirt isn't innocent at all, but shooting your entire band is.

Anyway:

Great gig!

Awful crowd though. Especially inbetween gigs.

(This was actually the only day of the festival the crowd was extremely pushy and annoying.)

I'm still fangirling over Green Day way too much to write a proper report on Mika though.

i think that too!!

are these the only 2 johnny movies you dont have?

Hmmm, good question...

*checks imdb*

I don't have Slow Burn and Ils se marièrent et eurent beaucoup d'enfants either. Oh, and I'm not really counting the Nightmare on Elm Street sequel, since he's credited as 'guy on tv', but I've never seen that one either.

And I still haven't seen The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus.

aww dont worry... these things happen here to... we had a really hard time finding Cannes Man... the copies just wouldnt work:aah:

That sucks too.

Although I have to admit that I sometimes like having to search for a film, it makes it more special when you've finally found it.

Why? I look like he's about the kill me with his pen or so ..

(he looks like he about to do that too.. )

The pen is glowing in a strange way.

That's he's deep in thought ... in conversation ... is working out in his head how to slyly jump on you

What a pity. I was enjoying this

Me too.

yeah, she got them on Ebay:teehee:

Thanks for the tip. ^^

(It's just that often the things I order online that I'm unable to find in stores, end up not being delivered/cancelled. I blame living in Holland. )

Unbelievable

Oh dear, I think Gaga's got competition.

That lipstick on his cheeck just says it all.

On weekends too, but everyone knows that!

I suggest we keep this thread alive till the weekend then.

you can get them online.. at amazon..

Thanks!

I can't believe I never looked on Amazon.

I did, because I like a good laugh in the middle of the week:mf_rosetinted:

Not on weekends?

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

wow, some people really give it alot of thought!!!!!!

 

ok, so Mika and Lady Gaga, the mystery is now solved:mf_rosetinted:

Wasn't there a ring discussion in this thread too at some point?

One less mystery to worry about.

Oooh see what I read on Wikianswers when someone asked Has Mika got a girlfriend?

 

"not yet.. but he has his eye on a girl he knows....

 

My sister got to be a Big Girl at a concert and heard his mum and sister talking about his girlfriend. So at that time at least, he did have a girlfriend."

 

or this one:

 

"He is rumored to be in a long-distance relationship with a girl named Vera, which squashed the rumors that he is gay.He is, in fact, bisexual. "

*Adds fuel to the fire*

You just really missed this thread, didn't you?

*Edit: This one cracked me up:

Is mika married?

No, He is not. But there is a picture of him on the internet with Lady Gaga and he is wearing his ring were you where it if you are married.

thats kinda awesome:mf_rosetinted:

My mom has ALL the Johnny Depp movies (like ALL! even Cannes Man and Private Resort) and theyre all places in chronological order... i once tried watching them all, but theres so many:shocked: I still havent seen "dead man":teehee:

How'd she get those?

I've been looking for them for aaaages!

McGregor will take on the role that Johnny Depp had been set to play in the original, aborted version back in 2000. Depp had still been attached to the role for this version, but with Pirates Of The Caribbean 4 eating into his schedule, and a September start date looming for The Man Who Killed Don Quixote, Gilliam has clearly decided to go with McGregor instead.

(http://www.empireonline.com/news/feed.asp?NID=27907)

Personally I'd have preferred it if Johnny had stayed on for this movie, and had decided not to do a 4th Pirates film.

(For those interested this is what they'd already shot of The Man Who Killed Don Quixote.)

Congrats!

Shall we post a vid of the Toppers?

I don't wanna do that to our fellow MFCers.

The Toppers are really something that makes me proud to be Dutch.....

Yeah, they're the perfect representatives of our country.

you don't have to like it , i would just go there cover my ears and watch mika

:roftl:then i would go to see them

Hmmm, I don't know if even Mika could make me like their music.

And yet.. so true.

Don't mess with the Toppers.

For real. Let your light shine baby.

So if one them decides to leave again, Mika could be considered as a replacement?

Mwahahahaha one review compared his Dr. John outfit to the Toppers:roftl:

That's just... wrong.

Laurel, you've one of the bravest people I've ever met. Stay strong!

You definitely are, Laurel! Take care & stay strong.

How do you react on things like news with probably join the after party w. the band and meet Axl?

I'd say, have fun!

There's a review in the Utrecht part of the AD newspaper about the gig. It is reasonably positive and it says that Mika was delayed since he got lost in Amsterdam, trying to find his favorite furniture shop by his own .

Then he couldn't find a cap and but a lady in a cafe helped him to get one. He didn't have enough money for the taxi but I'm sure John took care of that .

 

Did anyone else read reviews in newspapers about the gig?

(I probably shouldn't laugh. I still manage to get lost in Amsterdam occasionally - and I live there. )

I wonder if the cars were slowing down for him like they were for me, Viv, Sharon and Caroline. Hahahha.

Depending on what part of town he was in - they might have.

@Couldbepurple: What a lovely report! Great to hear you and your children enjoyed the concert so much!

I don't know whether to do a review of this show or not ... it's gonna be a tad different to everyone else's
